will 2009 Ram 1500 wheels fit my 2014 Ram 1500 V6?

Hello,
Just looking for some tire/wheel help.
Trying to find out if 2009 Ram 1500 Hemi wheels will fit on my 2014 Ram 1500 V6 4x4?

The 2009 wheels are P275/60/R20 114S
My 2014 wheel are P265/70/R17 113R

I've actually mounted the 09 rims on my truck, I get vibration above 60 miles per hour and also the truck pulls left and right slightly.
I had them balanced yesterday and no improvement.
I've read about positive caster becuase of the wider tire, also read about hub-centric-rings but not sure if any of these will help and perhaps the 09 wheel are just not compatible with my 2014 truck? I'm tempted to just put my OEM 17's back on (but that would require buying new tpms sensors $275, mounting and balancing $200 and re-flash my speedo back to 17 inch wheels). Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

You will definitely will not need hub centric rings. All the wheels from 2003+ will have the same hub size.

20s are going to ride different than 17s. If you've had them balanced, I'm not sure what else it could be. I mean bad tires, worn tie rods would cause that but doesn't make sense why the 17s are fine. Have you tq'd the wheels?

Thanks BlownGp;
Yeah its wierd. At speeds under 65mph its actually a better and smoother ride then the 17s. Tie rods are mint and everything else on the truck (5000km of use only and light duty not a work truck just communitng).
I have had them balanced twice and they used torque wrench after mounting with impact. Gonna leave like this a little longer and if no improvement going back to 17s but will likely need to buy new sensors and get the 17s re-balanced.
I was thinking of buying new tires for the 20s but what if the rim is not true and then spend even more and will still vibrate.
The 20 inch rims i got are used off a 2009 Laramie.

will 2009 Ram 1500 wheels fit my 2014 Ram 1500 V6?
